The goal of the formation is to achieve a single ballot for the "transformative left" in the Balearic Islands that serves as "a tool to join forces, build a progressive majority, and have more capacity to transform the policies that affect the Archipelago."</p>]]></description>

Sources from the presidency of Congress confirm that Francina Armengol will remove from the Bureau's agenda the item where the report sent last Friday by the Ministry of the Presidency was to be debated. In the text, La Moncloa argued that the law could not be debated because, if the Balearic Government participated in the management of the airports, this would harm Aena's interests. Sources from SUMAR-MÉS explain that the Minister of Culture, Ernest Urtasun, in collaboration with the eco-sovereignist deputy Vicenç Vidal, have interceded on this issue throughout the weekend. Finally, Urtasun has reached an agreement in the Council of Ministers with the Minister of the Presidency, Félix Bolaños, to withdraw this veto on the regulation.</p>]]></description>

The Balearic Islands' president, Marga Prohens, applauded the victory of the PP candidate, María Guardiola, who gained one seat compared to 2023, but fell short of an absolute majority. "An undeniable defeat for Sánchez's policies," said the Balearic leader, who conveniently omitted from her message the significant increase in Vox's representation, which rose from 5 seats to 11 and will further complicate governance. </p>]]></description>

The matter was put on hold after a "technical tie" occurred among party members at the end of June, resulting in the parliamentarian remaining provisionally within the multinational group. As before, and in accordance with the statutes of MÉS per Mallorca, the assembly rules stipulate that any decision will be adopted by a qualified majority, that is, by two-thirds of the members exercising their right to vote in person. The aforementioned sources explain that the opinion of the members cannot be predicted, but they perceive that the majority will opt to remain within the Sumar group, given the calmer internal and political climate. However, their allies in Menorca, Más por Menorca, did hold a vote in July, and also through an assembly of their members, it was decided by 83% of the vote that Vidal should leave Sumar and join the Mixed Group. Given this context and the tie in the first consultation, Más por Mallorca opted to postpone the decision until the end of the summer. Although holding it in September was considered, the new assembly will ultimately take place on Friday, coinciding with the preliminary work for the party's upcoming congress, which will be held in December.</p>]]></description>
